I have an OCZ Vertex3 240GB in my gaming rig. I bought it two plus years ago and it's still running flawlessly. I have it in two partitions; about 25% for Windows and the rest for games I'm currently playing. I have another 2TB drive in there just for file storage.
I just put a Samsung 840 EVO 250GB in my laptop a couple of weeks ago... so far so good. There's a very noticeable speed increase in pretty much everything over the 7200RPM, as well as a significant reduction in noise and heat. I did end up downsizing from 500GB, though with all the cloud and network storage I have available it's not posing an issue.
